Abstract: TheGood Practice Guidelines for the Assessment and Treatment of Adults with Gender Dysphoriais a publication of the Intercollegiate Committee of the Royal College of Psychiatrists. The overall goal of theGood Practice Guidelinesis to provide clinical guidance for health professionals to assist transsexual, transgender, and gender nonconforming people with safe and effective pathways to achieving lasting personal comfort with their gendered selves, in order to maximize their overall health, psychological well-being, and self-fulfillment. This assistance may include primary care, gynaecologic and urologic care, reproductive options, voice and communication therapy, mental health services (e.g., assessment, counselling, psychotherapy), and hormonal and surgical treatments. TheGood Practice Guidelinesare based on the best available science and expert professional consensus. TheGood Practice Guidelinesarticulate standards of care while acknowledging the role of making informed choices and the value of harm reduction approaches. In addition, theGood Practice Guidelinesrecognizes that treatment for gender dysphoria i.e., discomfort or distress that is caused by a discrepancy between persons gender identity and that persons sex assigned at birth (and the associated gender role and/or primary and secondary sex characteristics) has become more individualized. Some individuals who present for care will have made significant self-directed progress towards gender role changes or other resolutions regarding their gender identity or gender dysphoria. Other individuals will require more intensive services. Health professionals can use theGood Practice Guidelinesto help patients consider the full range of health services open to them, in accordance with their clinical needs and goals for gender expression.
